Canadian Vaulters were definite crowd pleasers during the FEI World Pas-de-Deux Championship, held during a high energy evening time slot on September 4 at the 2014 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games™ in Normandy, FRA.

Canada qualified two Pas-de-Deux vaulting teams for the Games. First to enter the ring at the Zenith venue in Caen, FRA were partners, Todd Griffiths of Cardston, AB and Brooke Boyd from Olds, AB, along with Lunger, Becca Hewit of Great Britain, and her eight-year-old Irish Sport Horse gelding, Bankey Moon.

They dazzled the crowd with an energetic performance set to swing music, choreographed by Kalyn Geisler of the United States. Griffiths and Boyd were granted an overall score of 7.715, taking over the lead at that point of the competition, and ending the night in eighth place overall against a highly competitive field.
